Hsa-mir-499 rs3746444 T/C Polymorphism is Associated with Increased Risk of Coronary Artery Disease in a Chinese Population.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a complex disease resulting from a combination of environmental and genetic factors. We hypothesized that polymorphisms hsa-mir-499 rs3746444 T/C, IRAK1 rs3027898 C/A and RANKL rs7984870 C/G might contribute to CAD susceptibility. METHODS:We studied the association between the three polymorphisms and the risk of CAD in a Chinese population using 435 CAD patients and 480 controls. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was used to perform the genotyping, and the differences were analysed. RESULTS:When the hsa-mir-499 rs3746444 TT homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, the TC, CC or TC/CC genotypes were associated with a significantly increased risk of CAD [TC vs. TT: adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.41, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02-1.94, p = 0.04; CC vs. TT: adjusted OR 3.14, 95% CI 1.77-5.56, p < 0.001; CC/TC vs. TT: adjusted OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.25-2.26, p < 0.001). In the recessive model, when the hsa-mir-499 rs3746444 TT/TC genotypes were used as the reference group, the CC homozygote genotype was associated with a significantly increased risk of CAD (adjusted OR 2.87, 95% CI 1.63-5.04, p < 0.001). Risk factors such as diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, smoking and low high-density ipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) were also associated with a significantly increased risk for CAD. Logistic regression analyses revealed that IRAK1 rs3027898 C/A and RANKL rs7984870 C/G polymorphisms were not associated with risk of CAD. CONCLUSIONS:These findings suggested that the functional polymorphism hsa-mir-499 rs3746444 T/C is associated with CAD susceptibility.

Project description:BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of endogenous, small and non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression negatively at the post-transcriptional level by suppressing translation or degrading target mRNAs, and are involved in diverse biological and pathological processes. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) which are located in the miRNA-coding genes may participate in the process of development and diseases by altering the expression of mature miRNA. Recent studies investigating the association between hsa-mir-499 polymorphism (rs3746444) and cancer risk have yielded conflicting results. METHODS: In this meta-analysis, we conducted a search of case-control studies on the associations of SNP rs3746444 with susceptibility to cancer in electronic databases. A total of 31 studies involving 12799 cases and 14507 controls were retrieved and the strength of the association was estimated by pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) was assessed by the goodness-of-fit chi-square test in controls. Subgroup analyses were done by racial descent and cancer type. Publication bias of literatures was evaluated by visual inspection of funnel plots and the linear regression asymmetry test by Egger et al. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by excluding one study at a time to examine the influence of individual data set on the pooled ORs. RESULTS: Overall, significant association between rs3746444 polymorphism and susceptibility to cancer was identified in TC versus TT and TC/CC versus TT (dominant) models. In the stratified analyses, increased risks were found in Asians, but not in Caucasians in all comparison models tested. Moreover, significant association with an increased risk was found in Chinese population. Also, much higher significant association with increased cancer risks were found in Iranian population. In different cancer types, a decreased risk was found in esophageal cancer. CONCLUSION: Our meta-analysis suggested that hsa-mir-499 rs3746444 T > C polymorphism is associated with the risk of cancer in Asians, mainly in Iranian and Chinese population. However, rs3746444 T > C polymorphism is negatively associated with the risk of esophageal cancer.
